Pell content WYSIWYG editor Widget for Yii2

Renders a Pell WYSIWYG text editor plugin widget.

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

composer require coderius/yii2-pell-widget:"~1.0"

or add

"coderius/yii2-pell-widget" : "~1.0"

to the require section of your application's composer.json file.

Usage

For example to use the pell editor with a [[\yii\base\Model|model]]:

echo Pell::widget([
   'model' => $model,
   'attribute' => 'text',
]);

Inside form without model:

$value = 'textarea some content';

echo \coderius\pell\Pell::widget([
   'name' => 'textarea-name',
   'value'  => $value,
   'clientOptions' =>[]
]);

The following example will used not as an element of form:

echo Pell::widget([
  'asFormPart'  => false,
  'value'  => $value,
  'clientOptions' =>[
      'onChange' => new JsExpression(
          "html => {
              console.log(html);
          },"
      )
  ]
]);

You can also use this widget in an [[\yii\widgets\ActiveForm|ActiveForm]] using the [[\yii\widgets\ActiveField::widget()|widget()]] method, for example like this:

use coderius\pell\Pell;

<?= $form->field($model, 'text')->widget(Pell::className(), []);?>

About ClientOptions

Please, remember that if you are required to add javascript to the configuration of the js plugin and is required to be plain JS, make use of JsExpression. That class was made by Yii for that specific purpose. For example:

// Having the following scenario
<script> 
    function jsFunctionToBeCalled() {
        // ...
    }
</script>

<?= $form->field($model, 'content')->widget(Pell::className(), [
        'clientOptions' => [
            'defaultParagraphSeparato' => 'div',

            // ...

            'actions' => [
                'bold',
                'italic',
                'underline',
                'strikethrough',
                'heading1',
                'heading2',
                'paragraph',
                'quote',
                'olist',
                'ulist',
                'code',
                'line',
                'link',
                'image',
                [
                    'name'   => 'backColor',
                    'icon'   => '<div style="background-color:pink;">A</div>',
                    'title'  => 'Highlight Color',
                    // this will render the function name without quotes on the configuration options of the plugin
                    'result' => new JsExpression('jsFunctionToBeCalled')
                ],
            ],
            
            // ...
        ]
        
    ]
]); ?>
